You are on Live The Dream Media. It's Monday. It's the day before Election Day. If you're supportive of Chris winning this thing tomorrow, make sure over the next 24 hours, next 12 hours, you are proclaiming your love for Chris DeSimone. Even if you don't live in Oral Valley, every vote counts. This is going to be a very big show today. I don't have time to go too much on the weekend. We had a great sign wave with about seven, eight people, Smooch the Donkey and then Pat Hirsch, amazing. She brought her truck that had the Chris DeSimone for Oral Valley Council on the back and she drove it through that intersection back and forth so people could see it. We had 40 honks, 35 waves, four or five people screaming positive stuff out the window, including, actually we saw General Maxwell and his lovely wife, Katie, yelling at us. That was fun. And then one middle finger, which meanwhile, Bill think we know who it is. So anyway, it happens.
And then we had a campaign event yesterday morning, and then watched the World Cup. Spain's tough, man. Spain's tough. Seven o'clock is going to be a very special hour. It will be Hessam Rahimian and Captain Bob Wells in studio together.
This will be, as Bob said, the idea that someone from Bob of the, you know, the military slash diplomacy side talking with an expat, trying to represent a bunch, part of the millions of people that are expats in America and elsewhere in the same studio together will be fascinating. They talked yesterday, I hooked them up. They've prepped, so they have a... We got to hell. I'm just going to ride the tornado with those two guys in the second hour, brother Joe in the third hour.
But so I'm not going to go too much into my weekend because of what happened. Well, I guess it was officially yesterday morning at two in the morning in Tucson, Arizona. So Tony, I sent you the one that said first segment, first doohickey, KOLD story. Let me know when you're ready to play that, please. We're going to play that right now. So we are going to talk about this horrific incident. And then I put from Game of Thrones, the North remembers. Now if you're, you know, if you want to go 80s to through today, Bread Product, Pepperidge Farm remembers.
But Chris remembers and brings the receipts. And you're going to see, some of you sent me something from a mildly deluded local restaurant owner about, hey, what's the big deal? The cops were there, stuff happens. They almost try to isolate it as a one-off.
I will bring the receipts. Tony.

We begin tonight with late breaking news as a confrontation in downtown Tucson in the early hours this morning has left nine people critically injured. Officials with the Tucson Police Department say the suspect is in custody and is also critically injured. But the downtown community continues to process what happened into the evening hours tonight. Now, this all took place shortly after 2 a.m. this morning near 6th Avenue and Congress Street. That's where we find 13 news reporter Peyton May who's joining us live now. Peyton, what else can you tell us?
**SPEAKER_6** (5:06)
Yeah, hey there, Sean. Well, witnesses tell us this is the spot where that gunfire broke out around 2 a.m. this morning. One woman we spoke to says it was just after all the bars in the downtown area had closed when she saw a fight break out between several men in front of this shop and things quickly turned violent. It was a normal Saturday night in downtown Tucson when a fight outside of Empire Pizza led to gunfire.
**Christopher DeSimone** (5:31)
He like lifted his shirt up and I didn't even see the gun, but I knew what that meant. I said, he has a gun, he has a gun, and nobody moved, and I had to grab my cousin and we dipped. And as soon as we bent the corner, shots fired.
**SPEAKER_6** (5:43)
Shots, leaving nine innocent bystanders with critical gunshot wounds to their arms or legs. A noise so distinct, it drew the attention of those all the way down the block.
